James McAvoy hates exercise
The British actor, who stars alongside Angelina Jolie in 'Wanted', admits he
was reluctant to tone his physique for the action-packed thriller.
When asked about his taut six-pack, James said: "They were not a special
effect. It was the result of a lot of time at the gym - which I hated. I
would actually rather eat dog poo than exercise."
The 29-year-old actor, who plays assassin Wesley Gibson in 'Wanted', also
revealed the supplements he took to help him bulk up had embarrassing
side-effects.
James added to Parade.com: "I was also trying to take these super-protein
supplements and they gave me incredible bouts of flatulence which wouldn't
have endeared me to the rest of the cast.
"But I'm back to normal. I haven't worked out since the day, 10 months ago,
that I wrapped this film."
James has also revealed he has "a lot of respect" for co-star Angelina, and
insists she is a very down to earth person despite her enormous fame.
He explained: "Working with her was cool. She's a nice lady. She's nothing
like the image from all the hype that follows her around. Angelina was just
completely different than anything I expected. I've got a lot of respect for
her."
